  cover of Discovering Kwan Yin

This lively book details the entry of Kwan Yin, the great goddess of compassion, into the lives of American women.

Nine beautiful photographs of Kwan Yin images are featured. Stories from Asian-American and European-American women evoke their contact with and veneration of this great compassionate goddess. A section of practices—chants, meditations, songs—will connect you strongly to Kwan Yin's saving energy.

(Boston: Beacon Press, 1999. paperback, $13)

“I’m so glad to have Discovering Kwan Yin, Buddhist Goddess of Compassion not only because of the wonderful subject, but because of my respect for Sandy Boucher’s work in Buddhism. This book gives a form of knowledge we deeply need in these times.”
-- Susan Griffin, author of What Her Body Thought

“Sandy Boucher’s work invites me to bow in thanksgiving to her and to Kwan Yin. This study in compassion, written with compassion, adds to the feminist store of religious knowledge. Its beauty and simplicity, its practicality and heartfelt tone bring the power of the Bodhisattva home.”
-- Mary E. Hunt, Ph.D. WATER (Women's Alliance for Theology, Ethics, and Ritual)
